Hey old friend
How you been?
Isn’t life such a drag?
Hey old friend
How you been?
These days, I seem to be able to laugh
Hey old friend
I been busy making moves
I feel that life is at its best
When I don’t have to choose
Between healthy smoothies
And delectable junk food
Sometimes I get in the mood
To buy 10 doobies
And smoke it all at once
But I graduated
From the school of hard knocks
And gave up the ways of a dunce
One day I’ll get the formula
To the Krabby Patties
And you will no longer have
To sell those nasty ass chums
I feel young
I hope you feel that way as well
Life is cool now
Even better than days
When we hooped and munched on Taco Bell
I can certainly tell
That some people never outgrow their city
That some people settle for things that are pretty
And things that are shitty
And wonder why they ain’t happy
I just want to let you know
I’ll never let this mindset trap me
Hey old friend
How’s the house and the picket fence
I feel like common sense
Isn’t so common now
Funny how I feel like Batman
And those dudes we looked up to
Be Robin now
I know that we all got roles to play
But I hope the one that you emulate
Get you excited to get out of bed every single day
You know that there’s so much more that I want to say
Like I hope you raise your daughter to be a queen
Like I hope you never cheat on your wife
Like I hope you have nights of ice creams and jelly beans
Like I hope you make the most of your life
I know that missed opportunities can be somewhat depressing
And I’m not trying to be pressing the issue
But I hope you pick up the hoe and shovel instead of the tissues
And know for every moment you miss me, I miss you
